When a metal reacts with a non metal it makes what?
It forms a compound. For example Iron + Oxygen ---> Iron Oxide aka rust.
When oxygen is bonded to a metal it forms a n compound when it is bonded to a nonmetal it forms a n compound?
When oxygen is bonded to a metal, it forms an oxide compound. When oxygen is bonded to a nonmetal, it forms an oxide compound as well. Oxygen can form both ionic and covalent bonds with different elements depending on their electronegativity.
Is H2S a metal or a nonmetal?
H2S is a compound composed of hydrogen and sulfur. Both hydrogen and sulfur are nonmetals.
What compound forms when metals react with nonmetals?
I think what you are asking is what type of bond is formed, as there are no 'catch all' terms for compounds made from non-metals. Non-metals bond to each other covalently - with a covalent bond. That's the one where electrons are shared, not donated.
Is table salt polar non polar or ionic?
Salt is polar. It dissolves in water (also polar). Like dissolves like.
When a metal reacts with a non metal it makes what?
It forms a compound. For example Iron + Oxygen ---> Iron Oxide aka rust.
What type of bond will two nonmetals form?
Two nonmetals will typically form a covalent bond, where they share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. This type of bond is characterized by the sharing of electrons rather than the transfer of electrons as in ionic bonding.
Is Na an ionic compound?
Sodium (Na) itself is a metal and forms ionic compounds when it reacts with nonmetals. For example, sodium chloride (NaCl) is an ionic compound where sodium donates an electron to chlorine to form an ionic bond.
When an elemental metal combines with an elemental nonmetal it forms?
binary ionic compound
From what class(es) of elements is the following compound made nitrogen dioxide?
Nitrogen dioxide is composed of nitrogen and oxygen, which are both nonmetals. Therefore, nitrogen dioxide is made from nonmetal elements.
What combination forms a salt two nonmetals two metal a metal and nonmetal or a nonmetal and a noble gas?
A metal and a nonmetal; but exceptions exist.
What type of compound is formed when elements combine?
It depends on the elements that are combining. if they are a metal and a nonmetal then it would be an ionic compound. If they are both nonmetals then it would be a molecular compound.
What forms when a non-metal and a non-metal react?
A covalent compound.
How are nonmetals named in an ionic compound?
Nonmetals in an ionic compound are named by using the nonmetal element name followed by the "-ide" suffix. For example, chlorine becomes chloride, oxygen becomes oxide, and nitrogen becomes nitride.
Why nitrogen forms compound with alkaline earth metal directly?
why nitrogen form compound with alkaline earth metal
When oxygen is bonded to a metal it forms a n compound when it is bonded to a nonmetal it forms a n compound?
When oxygen is bonded to a metal, it forms an oxide compound. When oxygen is bonded to a nonmetal, it forms an oxide compound as well. Oxygen can form both ionic and covalent bonds with different elements depending on their electronegativity.
Does ionised metal have a lower melting point?
When a metal is ionised it forms a compound - depending on what the compound is and what metal we are talking about the melting point of the compound may be more or less than the mp of the metal
